    Steppin' Down

    All, I wanted to let you know that I have chosen to step down as the moderator of this forum. Here is the message I sent to SoCal explaining my reasons for doing so: I wanted to drop you a note and let you know that I will be stepping down as moderator of the Food and Dining forum. Lately...

    Wine thread

    It will stick to the sides for awhile. That probably means it was laying on its side for quite some time. Most of that will probably stay stuck the bottle even while you're pouring from it, although you will probably pick up a little just from surface tension while you pour from it. It likely...

    Wine thread

    No need to get rid of it. It is actually helpful to the wine. Many wines are "fined" aka strained for sediment. You have a couple of choices on how to deal with this. 1. No cost method: Let the bottle rest upright for a couple of days (unopened) to get the sediment to fall to the bottom...

    Sattelite Pic of the UK today...

    Love the Old Ship. I haven't had their sausages, though. Their service, at least in the afternoons / evenings is not always the best. Perhaps I would need to be a regular for better service - and perhaps that is "authentic" service.

    For momopi

    I recall the first time I was served a fish with head and tail attached. It was very hard to eat it, until I did. A well prepared sole almondine will let you overlook a lot of things, even the fish staring back at you.

    Cafe Blanc, Costa Mesa

    I love Japanese and Korean versions of typically European and American pastries. They are exactly as you describe them. I get the secular celebration of Christmas in Japan, but I don't understand why they celebrate with cake.

    Wine thread

    I am curious to see how Spanish wines fare going forward. Our economic slump is bad, but nothing compared to theirs, and I know a number of wineries expanded or were bought for high prices. I had also heard that many recent vintages were very good, but from 2007 forward, not so much.

    Brazilian Blowout

    No. As best I can tell, it won't even touch your scalp. My hair gal left about an inch or so from the scalp before she applied the goo. Definitely ask though. Maybe they can do a skin / scalp test in advance with a little bit of the solution.

    I love that site. In fact, it got Edwin a slot at the OC Weekly where he writes ... every week! (Imagine that.)

    Brazilian Blowout

    Well... Got this done last night (at my usual salon, not ISM's), and my hair is STRAIGHT with just a little lift at the roots. It is AMAZING, and my hair feels good too. It might even be a little too straight for me, so I will try to style it today so that it has a bit more lift, which I...

    Shik Do Rak - Korean BBQ

    1. Thanks for the head's up on this. We will need to check it out. We are always looking for something good, new (to us), and different (not Japanese, bistro, or pizza). 2. What do you order at Honda Ya that brings your bill to $120?!? I know we have bigger appetites than you and our worst...

    Girl Scout cookies available early this year

    One of these days I hope they will just let you go online and order them, and be able to specify any particular troop or scout that should get credit.

    Irvine Anecdotes

    I am so glad you talked to him. After your description, it sounded like he was a person without too many friends. Even if you don't see eye to eye on everything, I'm sure he will be interesting person to talk to.

    Talk Irvine Get Together

    RC - That is so nice of you! I am a "maybe," as that weekend looks pretty busy on my calendar. It would be fun to see people, though.
